I am making a cake for the Special Forces unit here on post and I need to cover a beret with forest green fondant. The problem is, I don't know how to make the forest green color. I haven't been to hobby lobby to see if they have a forest green color gel but I am going soon. IF they don't what colors can I use to get the desired effect? This is one cake I would like to make as close to the original as possible. For the record the only green I have seen around here is leaf. Thank you!
I usually mix my greens, I think the wilton moss green or juniper green might work. They don't carry those at my Micheals but the Party City here carries them, hth

Or, you can try mixing with these charts:

(CC blocks the above address, so simply take out the space between "sugar" and Craft" It is an intensive chart with good advice.
